Birmingham’s Next FREE Wedding Open Day – 5 Reasons Why You Should Visit Us!

By Jessica Rodrigues | Events & Marketing Assistant


Are you looking to start your wedding planning? One of the most exciting times for newly engaged couples, the wedding planning stage can be overwhelming, so let us help you on your journey at our next Wedding Open Day! In this blog post, we will tell you exactly why you should visit us on Saturday 31st August, whatever stage of the planning you are in. If you are wanting to view our venue, you are one of our already booked couples or you are just looking for some inspiration, read on to find out more about what makes a Wedding Open Day at The Old Library so great!

 

1)      See Our Beautiful Venue

As our name suggests, we are an old library! Dating back to 1866, the Deritend Library was a functional library for many years until being converted into an events venue. With recognisably Victorian architecture such as high beam ceilings and stunning feature windows, come and see why our gothic elegance is so popular for weddings! Meet our wonderful events team and an array of amazing local wedding suppliers.

 

2)      FREE entry!

Yes, entry to our Wedding Open Day is completely free to attend for groups as big as you like! No booking in advance is required, just come along any time between 10am – 4pm. We are usually busiest between 12pm – 2pm, so if you want a quieter experience come outside of those times. Little ones are welcome (there may be some sweet treats available to keep them occupied!) and we are a fully accessible venue with wheelchair/pushchair access at the rear of the building.

3)      Discover Digbeth

Make a day out of coming to visit us and discover the quirky area of Digbeth whilst you are here! With a host of independent bars, cafes, shops and entertainment in the area, there is plenty to do to after you have finished at The Old Library. Why not also take the time to have a wander around the area and discover some of the unique photo opportunities we have in Digbeth?

 

4)      Ideal location

Save time travelling to a countryside location for a Wedding Open Day, and pop on the train or bus to the easily accessible city centre! Just a 10-minute walk from Birmingham New Street, we are in the perfect location for both locals and those of you travelling from further afield. Check out our guide here on how to find us from New Street!

 

5)      10% discount!

Last but certainly not least, we will be offering a very special discount for couples who attend our open day. If you decide to book your wedding on the day, we will give you a 10% discount on your wedding room hire! With our 2025 dates filling up quickly, this is a deal not to be missed.
